 From
his earliest days drawing comics like G. I. Joe,
Moon Knight and Ghost
Rider at the beginning of nineties, to his acclaimed
run on Captain America and the controversial
relaunch of The Hulk later that
same decade, to his most recent efforts drawing the adventures
of The Amazing Spider-Man, Wolverine
and Skaar, Son of Hulk,
Ron Garney has proven himself to be a visual storyteller of
both consummate skill and dedication.
Now,
in a pair of extended conversations with veteran journalist
Bill Baker, Garney charts his extraordinary life's journey
as an artist. It's all here - from making his own comics as
child, his rediscovery of the medium and first attempts to
break into the industry, through his fledgling professional
efforts and his years of serving as a workhorse for Marvel
and DC Comics, to his most recent work in both comics and
film. Along the way, he discusses his training and various
influences, provides detailed explanations of his approach
to the page and reveals why he changes his style from project
to project. Garney holds little back, even addressing the
price that the job has exacted from him over the years, how
it's affected his personal and professional lives, and the
important lessons he's learned from it all.
Filled
with telling observations delivered with a Sahara-dry wit,
displaying an almost embarrassing level of candor alloyed
with an understated sophistication, Ron Garney:
Going with The Flow presents a self-portrait
of the artist as compelling and engaging as the comics he
creates.
